The spirit of hope and possibility was felt during a recent visit by M Lhuillier's OPEC Marizon to Hugom Elementary School, a small yet vibrant institution located in the scenic province of Batangas. The task was simple yet impactful- delivering much-needed armchairs from Quezon to Batangas. This initiative is part of M Lhuillier’s ongoing commitment to supporting schools and fostering better education for Filipino youth. For M Lhuillier, education is the cornerstone of progress, and every small step taken to improve it contributes to building a brighter future for communities across the nation.
Following this commitment, on August 12, 2024, M Lhuillier’s OPEC Last Frontier team proudly marked a significant milestone by officially turning over an additional classroom to Sicsican Elementary School. Nestled along the South National Highway in Puerto Princesa City, this school serves nearly 2,397 eager learners, making it a vital educational hub in the community. This effort reflects M Lhuillier's dedication to expanding educational access and fostering a nurturing environment for students.
In line with this mission, M Lhuillier recently launched a transformative initiative aimed at empowering the Alternative Learning System (ALS) students of Brgy. Mulawin, Tanza, Cavite. Titled "Learners Today, Leaders Tomorrow," this project is designed to provide essential resources and support for students striving to enhance their educational journeys. Such initiatives are integral to M Lhuillier's overall strategy to uplift educational experiences across various demographics.
Moreover, in a thoughtful gesture to support educators, M Lhuillier’s OPEC Apo Duwaling provided custom t-shirts to the devoted teachers of Padada South Elementary School. This initiative, coupled with the generous donation of school supplies, reflects M Lhuillier's commitment to enhancing the educational experience for both teachers and students. Sir Mark Angel Tugade, the M Lhuillier Lending Cluster Coordinator, emphasized the importance of community involvement in education, further underscoring the company's dedication. The supplies distributed included a variety of educational materials such as bags, notebooks, pencils, and pencil cases, which are expected to greatly improve the learning environment at Padada South Elementary School.
Recognizing the pressing need to enhance learning conditions at Cabatang Elementary School, M Lhuillier has initiated a project aimed at improving the educational experience for students. A key component of this initiative is the provision of brand-new armchairs to accommodate the growing student population. These ergonomically designed armchairs promote comfort, support proper posture, and enhance concentration during lessons, thereby facilitating a more focused classroom environment. Through this investment, M Lhuillier seeks to establish a more supportive learning atmosphere, underscoring its commitment to fostering the development of the next generation and contributing to community growth.
Furthering its commitment to student safety, M Lhuillier’s OPEC Marizon launched a project that involved the installation of LED solar flood lights at Dayap Elementary School. This initiative aims to enhance safety and security for multigrade students by addressing the critical issue of inadequate lighting, ensuring that students can learn in a safe environment.
On October 29, 2024, M Lhuillier’s Organizational Productivity Enhancement Committee (OPEC) Pines successfully completed the turnover of its "Ligtas ang May Alarm" project at Suyo Elementary School in Bangui, Ilocos Norte. This important initiative provided the school with essential safety equipment, including a fire alarm system and a megaphone, aimed at enhancing the school’s preparedness for emergencies and ensuring the safety of students, teachers, and staff.
M Lhuillier, a trusted name in the Philippines, has long been committed to supporting educational initiatives that cultivate a deeper understanding and appreciation of the nation's captivating history. In a recent endeavor, the OPEC Kalayaan team organized a quiz bee competition at Bucal 1 Elementary School in Maragondon, Cavite, providing an engaging platform for students to showcase their historical knowledge and foster a love for learning.
Continuing its dedication to community support, on May 14, 2024, M Lhuillier conducted a successful turnover of a computer set, tables, and chairs to the Campo Filipino Day Care Center in Baguio City. This initiative not only provides underprivileged children with essential educational resources but also enhances their learning environment, demonstrating M Lhuillier’s commitment to corporate social responsibility.
On May 27, 2024, M Lhuillier, through its OPEC Pines initiative, proudly conducted the turnover ceremony of a Material Recovery Facility (MRF) project at Sacuyya Elementary School in Santa, Ilocos Sur. This initiative marks a significant step forward in supporting the school's "ZERO KALAT" (Zero Waste) advocacy, aimed at fostering sustainable waste management practices among the students.
Ultimately, education is the foundation upon which we build a more compassionate, connected, and sustainable society. By supporting public schools, we invest not only in academic success but also in the development of values that will shape the future. One remarkable project that exemplifies this principle is M Lhuillier’s donation of long tables and chairs to Port Area Elementary School in Busbus, Jolo Sulu, successfully facilitated by the dedicated team, M Lhuillier’s OPEC Zambasulta.
In addition to these efforts, Candelaria Elementary School, located in the mountainous barangay of Matag-ob, Leyte, serves as an educational haven for numerous pupils from low-income families. Recognizing the importance of their students' well-being, the dedicated teachers of the school proactively reached out to M Lhuillier’s OPEC Leyte Movers, requesting support for a feeding program. On January 23, 2024, the vigorous team of OPEC Leyte Movers visited Candelaria Elementary School to fulfill the requested feeding program for Grade 1-6 students, further exemplifying M Lhuillier's commitment to nurturing the holistic development of Filipino youth.
This initiative exemplifies M Lhuillier’s commitment to fostering educational excellence and community development, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to learn and grow in a supportive environment.
